Monti Garbi Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore Corvina Blend 2020

Fresh, red fruited, spicy and cedar-y on the nose. The body brings fine-grained tannins and that alluring combo of dried fruits: cranberry, strawberry, and raspberry marinating in the fresh tart juice of said fruits. All is overlayed with black tea and just a hint of bell pepper. Good gosh, it is exactly what I love about Ripasso: richness lurks, but freshness prevails. — 4 months ago

@Ken Z Josephine no question. Especially for red. Josephine is actually made by zalto but I much prefer that line…

I thought it was a new venture from the previous owner of zalto to break away from the family business and do his own thing. I generally find I prefer my zalto glasses over my Reidel ones, but only around 80% of the time, and almost never for specific varietals (sangiovese). Just curious on your experience.

I learn something every day! I find the Josephine 3 brings Pinot to a place no other glass can. It’s wonderful. Also available on Amazon which makes it easy to find

Casal Vegri Valpolicella Classico Superiore Corvina Blend 2017

Probably my favorite Valpolicella producer after Quintarelli (and maybe Monti dei Ragni.) Elegant and mouth-filling. — 4 years ago

Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend 2009

Truly a great value at $30. This Amarone is at the end of its life and is starting to turn brown, but it still delivered lovely bitter Amarone flavor. Deep dark fruit and chocolate. — 4 months ago

Monti Garbi Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Corvina Blend 2020

Really interesting funky wine. Not a textbook valpocella ripasso but still great. Dark cherry, blackberry, and smoke on the nose. Medium bodied, not as sweet as I’d expect for this style. Lots of licorice & cocoa. Finishes with a lingering cocoa note with lots of wood. — 9 months ago

Doppio Rosso Frizzante Barbera 2020

Light bubbles, but not too much. Semi-sweet at first taste, but smooths out once aired to pair with cheese and chocolate. — 2 years ago
